The anarchic, phenomenally strong-selling classic from the godfather of the Beats, featuring for the first time the restored text, all the accompanying essays, and newly discovered material from the original manuscript. Welcome to Interzone! Say hello to Bradley the Buyer, the best narcotics agent in the business. Check yourself into the hospital where Dr Benway works -- but don't expect adrenalin if you need it (the night porter shot it up for kicks). Meet Dr 'Fingers' Schafer, the Lobotomy Kid, and his greatest creation, 'The Complete American De-anxietized Man', a marvel of invasive psychiatry who has been reduced to nothing but a spinal cord. Told by an Ivy League-educated narcotics addict, 'Naked Lunch' juxtaposes two journeys: the narrator's physical progress from America to North Africa, via Mexico, and a terrifying descent into his own altered consciousness. In this 'Interzone', loosely based on Burroughs' temporary home Tangier, sex, drugs and murder are the most basic of commodities, and the basest desires have become completely banal.Provocative, influential, morbidly fascinating and mordantly funny, 'Naked Lunch' takes us on an exhilarating ride through the darkest recesses of the human psyche -- a ride which stunned the literary world when first published in the repressed 1950s, and is still guaranteed to epater more than a few bourgeois. Over forty years after first publication, Burroughs scholar Barry Miles and Burroughs' longtime editor James Grauerholz have compiled this definitive restored text, correcting numerous errors that have accumulated over the years, and incorporating all of Burroughs' notes and accompanying essays. Most exciting of all, this edition includes an appendix of newly discovered, never before seen material -- including alternate drafts from the original manuscript and letters from Burrough's private correspondence.

读后感

此书看得我一脑袋浆糊，按说作者与杰克•凯鲁亚克同时代的人，可是本书与《在路上》根本不是一个时代，反倒是与新寓言派的《战争》，说实话常规根本无法理解此书。 同样做为描写毒品的书，此书又与昆西的《瘾君子自白》也天差地别。我就奇怪了，难道吸毒也有现代与后现代的差...  

这本书很难用小说的概念来界定和解读。它多是感觉和幻像，假如你没吸过大麻，你肯定无法理解它，当然你吸了也未必理解。它太艺术了、太感官了、太无序了，总之太牛屄了。读它你会感觉你变成了一只阅读的虫子，钻进人的皮肤，随着血管，遨游在人的身体内，领略人体内既鲜红又黑...

《裸体午餐》是一个矛盾体，它并不是一本大部头，但读者却要用很长很长时间去读它。因为一个吸毒者的幻像世界本就支离破碎，作者却还在这碎片之中掺入大量类心理学意象。他说：“毒品的世界一无所有！”可《裸体午餐》里什么都有。药典、心理学、人性、政治、社会……像一大堆...  

这是一本极度恶心、疯狂、直逼逼却又让人无法放下的一本书。 如果你没有相当的忍耐力，真心劝你不要翻开此书，其恶心程度真不是闹着玩的，尤其是那些习惯了华丽丽的虚幻的小清新的小朋友们，更不要闹太套了。那种纯粹生理的不适感说不定会让你瞬间喷出刚刚咽下去的韭菜馅的包子...
